Notes

• The Sphere ByteArray object is most commonly used as a bridge between the script and either a RawFile or a network Socket.

• Although ByteArrays are commonly used with strings, each byte ranges between 0 and 255 (inclusive). This allows the creation of custom byte arrays to represent files with non-text content and support for files of any format.

• Each entry of a ByteArray is restricted to the range 0 to 255 (inclusive). Operations with larger numbers will result in an overflow.
